Get Rich or Die Tryin' is the debut studio album by American rapper 50 Cent. It was released on February 6, 2003, by Interscope Records, G-Unit Records, Shady Records and Aftermath Entertainment. After signing with Eminem, 50 Cent also worked heavily with Dr. Dre and Eminem both acting as the album's executive producers, who worked to combine the gangsta rap and R&B combo prevalent in New York hip-hop. Additional production is provided by Mike Elizondo, Sha Money XL, Mr. Porter, Rockwilder, Dirty Swift, Megahertz, and more. The album also contains guest appearances from Eminem, Young Buck, and Nate Dogg, as well as features from G-Unit co-members Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo. Before the album, 50 Cent released several mixtapes alongside the Trackmasters, and in 2000 recorded an unreleased album titled Power of the Dollar, which was supposed to be his first. However, after suffering legal troubles and being blackballed from the music industry, 50 Cent found difficulty in securing another major-label recording contract until he signed with Eminem's Shady Records in 2002.
